THE ZAHIR

Book Review by: espellse    

Original Author: PAOLO COELHO
This abstract was translated from EL ZAHIR
A recognized writer of world-wide fame discovers a day that its woman, correspondent military, has disappeared without leaving
sign. It has been kidnapped, victim of an attack or simply felt insatisfecha with its marriage? When its absence becomes an obsession that does not leave space for nothing else, the narrator sets out to find the answers to all the questions that have considered to him and, leaving the security of his world of privileges, initiates the way towards a not known destiny. From France to Spain, the Croatia and the beautiful plains of central Asia, the Zahir is the history of a search, an attempt to reach that point, perhaps nonexistent, in which two parallel routes are united. Thanks to their powerful and captivating narrative ability, and to some autobiographical pinceladas, Paulo Coelho offer in this new novel their extraordinary knowledge to us of the human being, in addition to a deep analysis of how we behaved with those to those who we say that we loved.
